From the publisher

Join four cool canine companions on a letter-replacement adventure in this phonics-based early reader from Theodor Seuss Geisel Medalist Ethan Long. In this engaging new early reader series from acclaimed author-illustrator Ethan Long, each story starts out with a three letter word. On the next page, one swapped letter makes a new word–and a new canine caper for little ones learning how to read! As this fresh and fun device propels the pups into silly, slapstick sequences, phonics help readers to discover new words, study how words relate to each other, and observe how text and pictures support one another. Ethan Long’s expressive artwork shines in these energetic, educational escapades that provide the youngest readers with the greatest adventure of all–a gateway into a lifelong love of reading. With fun stories and great pictures, new readers will say . . . “I like to read!” Created by award-winning-artists and talented newcomers and tested by educational experts, I Like to Read(R) books help develop vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension that lead to reading success.
